The primary setting in which these services are provided is the mainstream classroom. Our Alternate Learning Center/Pass Program is founded on the belief that youth benefit behaviorally from educational experiences with their appropriately behaved peers and academically from participation in the general curriculum. With the ongoing support of learning specialists, each student in program learns, practices, and implements individualized strategies that address targeted behaviors of concern. The program is implemented in four phases: (1) Pre-placement (2) Orientation (3) Maintenance and Inclusion (4) Aftercare
